Childhood Immunization

Prior to entry, attendance or transfer to preschools, schools (K-12), licensed childcare facilities, and family daycare homes, each child shall have on file a Florida Certification of Immunization DH 680. For additional information please visit Florida Health School Enrollment.

Attention parents and guardians: Please bring your child's most recently updated immunization record and the parent's government issued ID with a recognizable photo, date of birth, and signature.

Shot Records

Parents are encouraged to check their student's shot records throughout the school year so they do not have to wait until July or August to have them immunized. The 7th grade shot can be given as early as 10 years old.

Recommended Childhood Vaccines: 

• Infants and Children (Birth through 6 Years)
• Preteens and Teens (7-18)

Risks of Waiting to Immunize

• Newborns, babies, and toddlers can be exposed to deadly diseases, possibly without your knowledge.
• Their ability to fight off potentially deadly diseases is not fully developed.
• Most vaccine preventable diseases have high incidence and mortality rates among infants and toddlers.
• Children are the most vulnerable to disease and the least likely to have been previously exposed to infection.
• Lapsing immunization rates are often responsible for epidemics.
• Children who aren't immunized are more at risk for potential diseases than those that are.

International visitors from countries that don't vaccinate or where vaccination isn't routine can re-introduce vaccine preventable illnesses to our population, putting your unvaccinated child at risk.
